Yogi's Picnic Basket

We have a potential great one in Archie. We hit a true home run. I said I wanted either Billy D or Archie and maybe Mike White(Still think he is a star), but now I really think Archie was the best choice period. I am on a IU high right now, but he has changed things around without a real damn game being played lol. Props to Archie. Is it too early for an extension? Jkjk IU high talking.

Took the KU comments the same way. If they were that invested in them and they were the clear leader people said not too long ago which was crazy, no way they even mention cancelling.

I have said the same Hoosier Guy. I truly believed this visit would do the trick. Didn't expect it to go that well though. Great job to the fans, coaches and players for making this weekend one people won't forget for awhile.

Honestly, you'd be crazy not to take Mr. Langford's comments as anything other than IU is the clear favorite. Things can change as this weekend really put us on top for both kids it sounds like. The KU visit could blow him away too, but things are definitely looking up. Romeo is ours barring a KU miracle.

UCLA visit is still on at the moment as well. Could change, but don't expect it too.

More good news. Darius plans to decide soon. Like anyday now soon, but expect it to be at least a week. Will give coaches one last go round first I have heard. Said Hoosier Hysteria was "off the chain". Let's gooooooo

That is my concern. Would love to hear something a few days maybe longer to see how things are. UK is going after Tyler Herro now as well though not a pg it is another kid they are trying to make up ground on as they weren't around his first go round. It is Vandy or IU. I expect an announcement date set soon. Best part is Vandy is losing ground on Shittu as well. I love our chances.

Garland announces by December and I feel very good after last night that we will all be very happy. Trying not to overreact lol. What I heard about Darius wasn't groundbreaking but it was good. He is very tore about not staying home and playing for Vandy tho. Some said the Romeo attention made it hard for Garland not to wonder about Vandy, but his ovation was bigger than he expected. IMO he is only feeling that way cause he knows he probably is gonna let them down. Once again trying not to overreact lol but I think if anything it is neck and neck between the 2 now. Before, Vandy was the favorite.

Archie allowing sleeves finally isn't a major deal, but it is very cool. Does nothing to ruin tradition or anything. I have always wondered why no kids could wear them. Just seems weird. Thank god Archie changed this.

Believe Bozich tweeted something along the lines of it as well. Honestly, I was just happy to see fans not forget about Garland and the recruits. All deserved attention and they got it.

I was told not from Damezi, but Damon Bailey had a quick but meaningful chat with him that really stuck out to him.

Nothing too crazy, but definitely exciting. Damezi is a kid of few words lol but I have learned what they usually mean. Not gonna put anything out there that is too public tho. Lose trust. He is not committing tonight tho I can say that lol.

Talked to Damezi. Feel amazing about our chances with both.

Staff is thinking linebacker but wideout is still possible. Want him to take Covingtons spot.

Boom!! If anyone wants to catch my article over his commitment head over to Hoosier Huddle. Will have some good stuff on there in the next few days.

So it would be the most just tied with one other time lol. I could've googled for confirmation too, but knew it was only done maybe once like I said. That year turned out pretty well too if I am not mistaken.

So having 3 potential 1st rounders isn't that good StuHoo? We haven't had 3 picks in a draft let alone the 1st in well maybe ever. Moore is 22nd on ESPN's mock in 2019 and Langford is a top 10 player. Garland will probably stay 2 years but he could leave after one. Morgan has NBA potential as well as Davis. Throw in some good role players and I'm confused why it's that hard to see honestly lol. Victor was great as well as Cody with some role players but Yogi wasn't YOGI that year. Plus one huge difference....Crean and Archie. Also a Sweet Sixteen which is what they accomplished should be a decent yr in terms of expectations.

If we got Langford and Garland sorry, but we're a potential title team for those trying to use that excuse. Moore, Morgan and Davis could be a top frontcourt in the country. We have plenty of talent if we add those guys. A lineup of Garland, CuJo, Langford, Morgan and Davis with Moore, Smith, RP, Anderson, Race, Durham, Green who could start over CuJo just depends on this season. That roster has almost everything. Shooting, defense, scoring, a go to guy actually 2 and someone to throw it down to when we need a bucket. It would rival our Zeller, Oladipo, Watford and Yogi year IMO. Moore, Davis, Morgan and CuJo as well as Green could all look like above average players with one or 2 of them becoming elite.

Nothing new for me from this visit. This is why I have said Garland is almost just as important if not more important because without him we may not get Romeo. This year will be play big too. If we play well and it looks like we could be a factor next year, Romeo could see himself as the missing piece. I think we're in a great spot.

Romeo could go to any of these schools, but most assumed it was U of L or us till U of L screwed themselves. All the teams sides UCLA and Vandy who don't really have much standing in the way of PT or the spotlight made more aggressive pitches to these other kids. Now we're seeing the fact that most are at the end of the road with these kids while Romeo is at least a month away at minimum from announcing. With Dotson and likely Grimes I am more worried about UNC now. I really thought Dotson was Maryland's. Thought Florida had a shot too. Anyways I believe U of L helped us twice w Romeo.

We haven't seen the last of JBJ on the Sixers. Family is confident he makes it back and so am I. We tried trading Stauskas to make room, but no takers. Sixers love him, specially Brett Brown.

https://247sports.com/Player/Mabor-Majak-46046346 Sorry if already posted. According to Rabjohns we recently went to watch him.

Btw, MD I knew UK was all but out, but I got excited w the article. So many UK fans keep telling me he is goin there lol. I also believe he mentioned possibly committing if things go right for IU alone honestly. I don't see him going anywhere else before spring at least. I may get worried come february depending on how things play out. His family as everyone knows is Adidas heavy so I get what you're saying with that. I agree 100% too.

I have a bad feeling about UNC tho.

Saw an article on twitter I shared that Romeo choose to visit UNC over UK this weekend despite UK wanting him to come for Big Blue Madness. Sounds like UK is all but out.
